Publishing Data Using Event Simulation

Event simulator tool is used to simulate predefined event streams. These event stream definitions have stream attributes. You can use event simulator to create events by assigning values to the defined stream attributes and send them as events. This tool is useful for debugging and monitoring the event receivers and publishers, execution plans and event formatters. The events are sent to the component (e.g. to an event receiver, event publisher, execution plan etc.) that is defined in the event stream.

There are two ways of simulating an event flow as shown below.

• Sending a Single Event by Entering Data
• Sending Multiple Events
  • Sending Multiple Events Using a File
  • Sending Multiple Events Using a Datasource
  • Sending Multiple Events via XML/JSON
